I've just not gotten myself into doing it like last year. Lack of desire and engery I suppose.

Does Granger have ANY trade value? Will he help really even help that much when he comes back?
Chad Ford (1:21 PM)

All depends on how he checks out medically. If he's going to be 100 percent soon, he has a lot of value. If he's going to take the rest of the season to get back to 100 percent, his value drops for the Pacers.
James (Chicago)

I think Eric Bledsoe of the Clippers would be their top target. Ed Davis, who the Pacers seriously considered drafting over Paul George, would be another option.

Interesting quote from Andre Iguodala on his defense:

"Sometimes when they're driving or want to get open and they're pushing off on me, they push off a lot, and they get away with it. So when they push off, I just lean back, but I grab their hand with me, so as they're pushing me, I grab them so they gotta come with me. When they're trying to come off and I'm holding that, that gives me a second to recover. That's them shooting the ball or catching and shooting the ball, right there is one second. So I'm back in front just by doing that."

a Granger for Bledsoe package just makes too much sense for it too happen. He would solve our need of a quick defender to guard quick 1s and the Clipps would be a much better team with a healthy Granger that is a move that turns the Clipps into favorites in the NBA IMO.

I am guessing they want to keep Lamar though for the playoffs if he is fit he is a perfect C vs a team that goes small.

We take back Caron Butler or LO whichever they prefer(i personally would trade Odom and then plan to use Granger as a PF a lot when Blake needs a break) and Bledsoe

We send Granger and 2 1st rd picks and call it a deal

Odom would probably go right back to his fatty self once he left LA again. Could even call him LFO.

Looks like a .500 team or slightly better. I feel sorry for Toronto fans but I guess they are used to this. All MLSE teams are similar.

I was gonna guess DET as the 3rd team because Maggetee contract is a good match. I I lol and said no way a contender like Memphis would actually give up the season by having Maggtee be their 3. I am guessing Memphis players will be pissed.
